Why do honeybees swarm? What should you do if you see one? Come to the College Avenue Library to find out about honeybees and swarms. Presenter: Bill Cummings, long-time beekeeper.
Established as the Broadway Branch in 1924, the library served the neighborhood from a frame house on E. 42nd Street until 1958 when a 6,500-square-foot facility opened on Broadway Street. This aging and overcrowded building was replaced in August 2000 with the current 16,000-square-foot structure on College Avenue that was renamed the College Avenue Branch.
